  • Serves Jersey City, NJ

I began my career a decade ago. As a tour photographer, I began accompanying musicians all over the world. Little did I know at that point the low lights, high energy, and late nights would translate well into my career as a wedding photographer. My start as a music photographer gave me the confidence to navigate even the most challenging and unpredictable situations, and I use the same philosophy now while photographing weddings: keep calm, stay observant, and follow the action.

My wife and I worked with Jess over this past year for engagement photos and coverage of our wedding (ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception). The engagement photos were done in NYC and the wedding was at a venue outside of Philadelphia. It was a true pleasure to work with Jess. She is extremely skilled, knowledgeable, communicative, and prepared. The quality of the work in her portfolio speaks for itself but I cannot overstate how thrilled my partner and I are with the photos. She managed to capture so many lovely moments and the spirit of the day. The intimacy and beauty she brings out with her portraits are astounding—I have never felt more comfortable being in front of a camera and I have never loved the result so much. The variety of the media brings a beauty to the detail I didn’t think I would care about—the place settings, the venue, and everything else look great and are considered in composition and lighting. None of the photos delivered are there just to check a box. The amount of preparation and work she puts in for each job is evident just by the uniquely specific nature of her questionnaire—her questions were helpful for us in planning! She was always quick to email us back when we had questions for her and helpful in ways we never would have expected—good news if you don’t know how to pin a boutonniere, Jess does (and she brought extra pins). The amount of choices for any type of wedding vendor is overwhelming. You would be lucky, as we were, to choose Jess.

Far Out Feeling

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $3,200
  • Serves Jersey City, NJ

Meaghan here - I’m the one from which you’ll hear a lot of “Fuck yeah!!!” and “You guys look so hot!” My inspiration comes from our lord and savior, Janis Joplin, and my style is free movement and honesty. Howdy! I'm Brendon, a quiet Mid-Westerner turned East-Coast loud-mouth who happens to have a knack for photography, editing, graphic illustration, and all things creative. My background comes from shooting fashion shows and exclusive events for BFA.com around NYC, which made me appreciate the avant-garde.

We had a terrific experience working with Meaghan and Brendon of “Far Out Feeling.” If you’ve made it this far, you already love their style – their ability to capture both candid and staged photos artfully – and we are happy to report that the photographers have personalities to match. We loved meeting them for drinks months in advance of our wedding, which gave us a nice context for one another when the day finally came (we cannot imagine, now, not knowing our wedding photographers when they arrived to take pictures of us!) We perhaps didn’t consider how crucial this feeling of comfort was, but when you think about, you do spend a tremendous portion of your wedding day with your photographers. Meaghan and Brendon felt like friends, which made even the parts of the wedding that we don’t like (posing!) feel easy, natural, and fun. Meaghan and Brendon were incredibly responsive, from first to last. They always got back to us the day we had a question, and even weeks after our wedding, they were responding to our technical difficulties within minutes. And the photos themselves turned out great! Again, you’ve probably seen evidence of this already. We cannot wait to print them, frame them, and, in all likelihood, post them relentlessly to our Instagram stories. A huge thank you to Meaghan and Brendon, who we recommend whole-heartedly.

We’ve all been in front of someone’s iPhone for a photo. You might not think anything of it until you see it later & you don’t look anything like yourself. My mom loves to snap family photos, so I’ve been there. It's terrible for confidence & it's stressful when someone at the party says “let’s take a photo!” I get it. That’s why I do this–for you to see photos of yourself that actually looks right & you see your own lit up smile, you see yourself in that moment and simply how happy you were. I photograph weddings for that freedom & relief that your creativity & mine are working together to craft authentic, artful photographs for you.

Jenn is a true artist. Her photography and eye for details is really something special. The tone of her photos make them look straight out of a magazine. She was SO kind, SO professional, and really helped us keep everything on track. She was somehow able to float around and capture perfectly candid shots, while also being present at all the big moments, too. I don't know how she manages to do it all but she does it all! Stop searching for photographers and just book Jenn immediately...you will not regret it.

I document life, love, and every moment in between as a wedding and portrait photographer living in historical Carlisle, Pennsylvania. My heart beats for joy filled couples, playful families, and joy in the ordinary.

After graduating from Parson's School of Art in Manhattan, I worked as a fine artist, my work involved photography and photo manipulation. I quickly discovered that I loved and excelled at photo retouching, and went on to work for some of the best photo retouching studios in New York. In 2009 I shot my first wedding, it was a dear friend of mine and the beautiful photos were featured in one of the biggest wedding magazines. I realized that I had found my calling and have been producing stunning wedding photographs with my amazing team and clients ever since.

Emma was absolutely amazing, from the moment we enquired right through to the end; she was great to deal with, very friendly and helpful, provided great advise and made everyone feel at ease! Highly professional, talented, organised and a great communicator, with an eye for detail! She captured all those special moments without being intrusive or even knowing that she was there. My husband is not a fan of the camera, Emma worked with it, didn’t make it a problem and captured some fantastic candid photos! We are so incredibly happy with our photos and highly recommend Emma to anyone who is wanting a professional wedding photographer!

Hey! I'm Nina. I'm a pretty energetic and charismatic person that loves love and enjoys life. Documenting through photo is my favorite thing on this planet. I've been a professional photographer since 2016 but really I've been invested in photography since I was 15 years old. My love for documenting moments came from a desire to capture my own life and that of my friends using disposable cameras to using flip phone cameras and point and shoot digital cameras on beach trips with friends. I have used writing, art, and photo to document my life and it is an incredibly special thing to be able to share that with my clients.

RS Moments

  • Photojournalistic style
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Jersey City, NJ

Our style is artistic and documentary, and can be described in three words; Sincere, Scenic, and Inspirational. Sincere, we will never ask you to act unnaturally in front of our camera; we will adjust to your personalities and photograph you as you are. Scenic, because we love beautiful landscapes and love to incorporate everyone in such environments. Inspirational, because there is always a new way or a new idea to capture a photo but in the end it's capturing that special moment.

RS Moments were the perfect wedding photographers for our special day. From the moment we first spoke with them, their communication style was considerate, kind, and unique. They truly understood the importance of capturing our day in a way that felt personal and special to us. Throughout the process, they were caring, understanding, and respectful, guiding us through different poses and angles to get the perfect shots. We loved how they incorporated unique elements like mirrors, umbrellas, and the beach to create beautiful, one-of-a-kind photos that perfectly complement our love. The results were absolutely stunning, and we are so grateful to have these memories preserved. We couldn't recommend RS Moments more highly!

When you hire Rick Lash Photography, you're hiring me, Rick. I've been a professional wedding photographer since 2012 and I still love what I do more than I did the day before. I'm here to make your wedding day better. How do I do this? By being thoughtful, professional, and precise. What's this mean? I'm going to walk through your day several times with you before we get there. We're going to plan how I should capture it without getting in your way. I want you to enjoy your day as much as possible while I'm able to fulfill my role to the best of my abilities. I'm also here to make your memories better. That's what my photography is for.

I hired Rick to photograph a family gathering to celebrate a 150th anniversary event. Rick's ability to capture moments when family members were talking, laughing, hugging, and sharing special glances is one of his true talents. The photographs reveal personalities and emotions, and as we look at the photographs we keep saying "that's so her/him!".

I'm Alex. I spend my free time with my husband and our dogs Conor & Belle. I'm lucky to live in the Hudson Valley surrounded by amazing nature and upstate lifestyle. Art is something that I fell in love with at a young age and has always carried me through life- it lead me to photography. The mixture of art and emotion is one of the things I love most about wedding photography. When you look through your collection of photos I want you to feel and see the emotion, love and fun you had on your best day ever.

Alex is AMAZING. Her photos left us in awe — I was so impressed by how she listened to my vision and adapted her style accordingly. Most of all, though, Alex excels in all things related to running a business — she’s prompt in email responses, professional with her contracts and payment process, and goes above and beyond to connect you with resources for a successful day (a last minute coordinator, in my case). This is what really sets her apart from other vendors in my opinion. Run, don’t walk, to hire Alex for your wedding!

If I had a superpower, it would be celebrating people. I'm my friends' biggest cheerleader and I'll be yours too during this whole process! As a documentary wedding photographer, I focus more on being in the moment and letting you be YOU, by reminding you why you fell in love in the first place.

When you choose Loretta, you’re not just selecting a wedding photographer. You’re making a new friend. Loretta - and her husband Juan - have been such a blessing to us throughout the entire process. From our first zoom meeting where her genuine good & joyful spirit came through the screen, to turning an engagement photoshoot into a fun double date at our favorite pizza place. The person she is truly separates her from anyone else you’ll select for your big day, not to mention she has INCREDIBLE skills with the camera. Both the indoor & outdoor portions of our wedding day have their own specific look and we loved the way she portrayed our beach setting AND the dance floor moments in all her photos. OH ONE MORE THING - our reception ended at 11:30pm on a Sunday. She gave us a “sneak peek” of over 100 photos within 12 hours that we were able to share with all our friends & family the next day! Our wedding day/night was such a blur, yet we were able to relive it the next day in every moment that she captured on camera. If you want outstanding customer service, brilliant professional photography and a lifelong friend, Loretta Rodriguez is the way to go!

Weddings are celebrations that are full of emotion and romance all in a highly dynamic environment. Wedding photographs are timeless and irreplaceable so as a photographer, I feel I have a great responsibility at hand. I try my best to work with clients on their needs, provide flexible coverage hours and I work within their budgets. I am drawn to those unguarded candid moments. I attempt to portray an artistic feel that reveals feelings of emotion onto the viewer. Be it a gaze, a beaming smile, tears of joy or a blurred image to depict movement my goal is communication. It is these moments along with many others I feel should be captured.

Jose is fantastic! He has so much experience and very professional. Before our wedding day, he always had quick and clear communication. We loved his artistic eye and dramatic style of photography. He knows how to give good direction for those that aren’t used to posing or being photographed, and was always looking for the next shot. He definitely lets you be you and can still get amazing shots. We were surprised at how quickly we got to preview our gallery. After the wedding day, I realized that there was so much I didn’t get to document personally to remember the details from that day. But after seeing some of the shots, Jose had made me so happy to see how much he documented from the day! I highly recommend Jose :)

From the moment she arrived, her warm and professional demeanor put us at ease, allowing us to focus on enjoying our day. Her attention to detail was exceptional. She captured every significant moment, from the subtle glances to the big celebrations, with an artistic eye that truly showcased the emotions and beauty of our wedding. Each photo reflects not just an image but a cherished memory. What stood out the most was her attentiveness to our needs. Throughout the entire day, she was there, ensuring we were comfortable and happy with every shot. She seamlessly blended into the background during intimate moments, yet was right there when we needed her for posed pictures. Her ability to adapt and respond to the day's events, while maintaining a calm and cheerful presence, was remarkable. Magalie went above and beyond to make sure our vision for the day was realized.

You know those first few months that you fall in love & everything is so wonderful & terrifying & just so damn GOOD? It's that “new love” feeling & I’ve never been able to replicate that feeling with anything else, except photography. Your wedding day tells the story of your love. From that “new love” to the more comfortable kind, it is the culmination of all those moments leading up to “I do.” I consider myself the narrator of that day, telling that story and documenting your connection through my photographs.

We highly recommend JENNY for any photo needs. She’s amazingly detailed and makes you feel like she’s your best friend. We were both nervous for our engagement shoot and she made it a breeze! 15/10 would recommend!

We never thought someone can capture all the emotions and candid moments we had that day. The 4 hours of the shoot flew by and we still talk about it like one of the most fun time we had together. Can't wait for her to shoot our family wedding next! :)

Hi, Thanks for reading! Here's my photography short story: 2017, after 13 years of teaching, I said goodbye to the classroom and pursued Olympic weightlifting photography- my company was Everyday Lifters. Shortly after, I launched my wedding business. The Long Version: Weightlifting has taken me to places like Turkmenistan, Germany, & across the country! The weightlifters started getting married, and along the way, I received training to advocate for diverse bodies as a photographer. During this time of transition, I started taking documenting courses through the International Center of Photography and work on documenting local stories.

I have reached out to Viviana in 2019 for our wedding in May 2020. She was accommodating and gave us a lot of information and We just clicked right off the bat. Our wedding was postponed due to Covid and she was so helpful along the way and making the rescheduling as easy as possible from her end. We got married July 2021 Viviana was amazing. My fiancé and I are not big in to pictures but Viviana made it easy and the pictures were absolutely amazing. Throughout the entire day guests would comment on hell she was all over the place getting such great pictures. She even got pictures that I had no clue she even took and when I received all of our pictures was amazed at what an amazing job she did. I would recommend her to anyone.

You and I have much in common. We are adventurers, avid dancers, and seekers. We are searching for something more - something bigger and more beautiful than we've ever known before. And I'm here to document it for you! I am Jane, a photographer serving the world with beautiful, authentic photos for the crazy in-love couples.

Jane was great and I highly recommend her for your events! Her pricing was unbeatable for what we got, she was great with posing small and large groups, able to direct a crowd and took beautiful photos. Also a lovely person to be around that makes everything fun. I was nervous to see how I would look in my engagement photos and that they would look awkward but Jane was able to capture us perfectly and get magical photos. Wedding photos were delivered quickly, high quality and captured the night and our loved ones perfectly. My guests also commented how great she was and we hope to use her again in future life milestones :)

We (Melissa & Michael) became wedding photographers because we truly believe we have something different to bring to the table. Our goals are simple: to help you relive each moment of your wedding day every time you look at your images, make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, and blend into the crowd like we're your guests. We pride ourselves on open & honest communication with our couples, a seamless booking-through-wedding-day process, super speedy photo delivery, and lending a helping hand in any way we can.

I can't say enough good things about Melissa! From the moment we first talked, I just knew she was the one we wanted for our wedding. On the big day, she was absolutely incredible, capturing every perfect moment with such an amazing eye for detail. Melissa's photojournalism style was exactly what we were looking for. She has this talent for blending candid moments with beautifully posed shots, and the pictures she took with film have this gorgeous, timeless feel to them. Plus, she was so calm and reassuring throughout the day, anticipating everything we needed before we even knew we needed it. We booked her for 10 hours to make sure we got "the most" coverage, including our rehearsal dinner and an engagement shoot, and her team did a fantastic job with the videography too. If you're looking for a photographer who will go above and beyond to make your wedding day unforgettable, Melissa is the one. We couldn't be happier with our photos and videos. Highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!

I'm just an 80's born, 90's raised millennial photographer who wants to shoot passionate couples and have his avocado toast too. My approach to photography is journalistic, directed not posed. My approach to a wedding day is calm, attentive, easy-going, non-intrusive without being awkwardly shy, and always with a smile.

While I'm not a client of Hector's, I am a fellow wedding vendor (videographer) and there is no photographer I prefer working with over Hector. His energy is calming and easy-going, but he always makes sure we BOTH get what we need. Instead of fighting against each other to get our shots, we work so well together it actually enhances our footage. He's organized, straight-forward and attentive. Plus, he travels all over! 10/10 would recommend :)

Ann is kind and thoughtful and a natural at her job. She rolls with the punches and knows how to have everyone have fun and capture the joy of the wedding day.

I found my passion for art while growing up surrounded by horses in a small town in Brazil. The shapes, textures, and colors of the horses always have been inspiring to me. I’ve always wanted to recreate them, but was never really able to. Honestly, my painting/drawing skills were and still are terrible, and that’s when photography came up in my life. I would create imaginary cameras out of my toys and would ‘photograph’ the horses and my neighbors. Photographing people became my passion and then evolved into my work in editorial and wedding photography.

I can't post enough praise about Gui from 98 Wedding Co, and I'm SHOCKED there's not more reviews here. We recently had our engagement shoot with him and let me tell you-- we were blown away by the photos. We were looking for an editorial style that screamed NYC, and Gui captured it perfectly. All my family and friends were amazed at the shots and could not stop raving about how well he captured us and our vision. It looks like a spread out of Vogue! My fiance and I are also pretty awkward in front of the camera, and Gui's calm and relaxed presence was a breath of fresh air. He knew all the right spots and best places to get the perfect lighting and framing, a true expert in his craft! I can't wait to see how perfectly he captures our wedding and will be sure to update this review when the photos are inevitably stunning as well. Thank you Gui!!!

Hey there, I'm Joy! Years from now when you look at your wedding photographs, I want all of the memories and emotions to come flooding back: the joy, the love, and the laughter. It’s so easy to live our lives, missing the sweetest moments because how quickly they fly by. Those sweet in-between moments that can be so easily missed are my favorite to capture. Whether it be your candid smiles, the tears shed on your wedding day, or your beautiful family laughing together, I find joy in capturing you being YOU! I love photography because through it, I’m able to share pieces of your story and create lasting memories.

Joy is an amazing photographer! Super organized, great communicator, and her professionalism creates a comfortable environment for everyone involved. Watching her journey from the beginning has been inspiring - the hustle is real.

As a candid wedding photographer, my work is created with the purpose of preserving your love story with intention, honesty, and real connection. Getting to know you independently and as a couple through my questionnaires helps me to capture images in a way that is authentic to your unique love story. Every person is unique and your love reflects that. At your wedding you'll find me getting vulnerable with your closest peeps, using my ninja skills to quietly get the shot, and definitely singing along to any song I know on the dance floor. When I'm not shooting, you can find me snuggled up in bed watching my (current) favorite Netflix show!

Awarded Best of Zola
We used Daniella for our engagement photos, she was so easy to work with and was always quick to respond to any messages or questions we had. When it came to the day of our shoot she was so sweet and professional and we just had the best time. Our photos were set at a different location and time of day then she is used to shooting but the pictures ended up being more amazing then we could have ever imagined. I look forward to working with Daniella again in the future!

Welcome to James Webb Photography, recently named the best photographer in the world by my daughter. My name is James and my goal is to tell your love story through powerful images. From your engagement session to your wedding day, my approach is laid back and relaxed while giving direction as needed. This is how I capture authentic and expressive images that tell the story of your most important moments.

I was in a few weddings that James shot previously, so I knew as soon as I got engaged that I needed to book him. James is SO talented. He has a unique eye for shots and creates stunning photos. I wanted pictures from my wedding that I could frame and hang on my walls, and less than a month after getting our pictures back, I already have three Smallwoods hanging on my walls. He is such a pleasure to work with and definitely brings the energy to keep you smiling in your photos all day. I will continue singing his praises and recommend him to anyone who is looking for a wedding photographer.

I stay behind the camera because I'm more than a little introverted. That is, until I get to know people. Then I open up and we can talk about movies, music, dogs (I'm happy to show you pictures and videos of my rescue dog). I love what I do because I get to capture moments between you and the most important people in your life that you'll be able to relive for decades to come!

I’ve known Casey for many years and always look forward to working with him. He’s incredibly down to earth, very kind, quiet, and funny. On a day that is full of emotion, anticipation, and nervous energy, Casey’s relaxed temperament & sense of humor helps couples to relax and brings out their natural smiles & expressions. He has years of professional experience and knows exactly what moments to capture. Casey is genuine and has no show off attitude about him—he’s the perfect choice for real people who want to spend their wedding day with a great guy who will put them at ease & make them look awesome.

After nearly a decade of freelancing as a wedding cinematographer and photographer, I’m excited to have opened my own studio, dedicated to capturing love stories. While I originally came to the U.S. in 2015 for a Master’s in International Business, I discovered my true passion for documenting life’s most special moments. Weddings are about more than just beautiful shots—they’re about preserving raw, candid emotions. My goal is to capture moments you’ll cherish forever, so you can relive your wedding day for years to come.

Veil & Film was the perfect choice for our wedding photography and videography. From the beginning, their communication was efficient, precise and incredibly patient as we navigated the many details of our big day. On the wedding day, their team proved to be hardworking, creative and dignified in their approach. They were very accommodating when our timeline shifted, and if we requested specific themed photos, they had additional creative shots in mind on the spot which was so impressive. We were tearfully happy when we received the final photos and videos - it was like reliving the whole wedding all over again. We are currently expecting and will definitely be using Veil & Film to capture our baby shower as well. This amazing team truly helped make our special day unforgettable.
